Lycra leggings – the final step in the evolution of a running fanatic | Life and style | The Guardian

When did it come to this? When did I become the man who wore running tights?

Leggings that cost as much as Levi’s. It’s absurd – financially, fashion-wise, every which way. If you had asked me a few years ago, I would have scoffed at the thought. Now, I’m slower to chide. It’s OK, I tell myself. I’m just being me. The new me. The runner me. The convert.
